About This Home

As of October 2024

This fine cottage, built in the 1940's has been wonderfully maintained and cared for. Classic beach style with beautiful knotty pine walls and ceiling in the main living area. The home has been a wonderful rental for many years with repeat renters returning year after year. Plenty of room inside, especially so for a cottage of this age. Mini-splits provide a/c with electric heat as well. Open decks off both levels some allowing a bit of shade and others plenty of direct sunshine.
The lot size is 50' x 150' with a detached garage. Large stone driveway for off-street parking too.
Prime location on the South East Corner of Bunting Avenue and Cannon Street, direct ocean front, right in the heart of the wonderful town of Fenwick Island.
Please note: Sellers would love to be able to remove the knotty pine from inside the home if and when the buyer(s) decide to demolish the home and rebuild.
